The Cuckoo Kitchen's Winter Dinner at The Baring in N1

The Cuckoo Kitchen was started by six friends who liked the idea of raising money for charity, but were unlikely to ever run a half-marathon. Instead, playing to their strengths, they decided to launch a restaurant where the proceeds from each evening are donated to a local charitable cause. They take over a pub kitchen four times a year, and on Monday 9th February they'll be cooking at the Baring, in Baring Street, N1, between Angel & Haggerston, for a meal featuring Goan osso bucco (full menu below) in aid of the Street Doctors charity. Please support them - sounds like a great night!
